I bought my '10 Tacoma from Ira, but it was on the BMW lot

 

Could go to bed. Need to be up by 3.



Or I could watch videos and learn about Linux....which I know nothing about.

 

I haven't seen anything Linux/Unix since I became a civilian....

 

I'm pretty good with mechanical things and manuals. Let's see if that can't transfer over to computers .


For a fun winter project I decided I'm building an SPod system for my truck.

Ya'll have any advice? Figure I should ask some more local peeps as well.

 

It's not an awful transition between the 2 but it certainly isn't fun either. I took a computers course at school and tough getting all of the code to coorperate but it wasn't awful getting used to it. The teacher did a "flipped classroom" where you had to do all of your learning outside of class then practice in class....I don't learn that way so I especially struggled more than normal.

 

That's it! You must live right near Stevens Pond?

 

Guilty

 

I never knew you went there. I graduated from there myself. I actually got into grad school there before deciding it wasn’t for me. What it would have taken to pass the classes was more than I was willing to give.

 

Hey on the bright side today I finally got a chance to pick up my SOS IFS skid. Thing looks beefy. Depending on the weather the next few days plan is to clean, prime, and enamel coat it then hopefully install this sunday!

 

Just put in the paperwork to cash out some earned time, This guy is going to Greece next summer.

 

Weather is supposed to go to absolute shit tomorrow afternoon and a storm Saturday.

Been there, it's awesome! I'd go back in a heartbeat.

 

Any particular reason for going with enamel paint?

Speaking of which I really need to repaint mine before the snow hits

 

Nice! I'm excited, friend is having a destination wedding. I'll be there for a week thereabouts.

 

All them scratches from AOAA! Me too, I'm just gonna hit it with a can of primer/paint real quick. But I'll probably sctach them up again in the middle of winter.

 

Im a fan of enamel/appliance paint for certain things.
Thick, and can take a bit of a beating.

 

Where I'm Greece? When I was 18 my grandparents took everyone in my family on a 3 week cruise in the Mediterranean . Went to a bunch of the Greek isles and some other cool places.

 

Looks like all rain this weekend here, can't explain how happy I am to not be dealing with a bunch of snow already.

 

Once you get it on, post some pics up in the SOS armor thread!

But I need to do leaves and mow, which is apparently not happening now.
